The Pruning , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 578min
A woman who longs for belonging navigates the perils of romance and religion in Ora Murphy’s engrossing novel.In Ora Murphy’s novel The Pruning, a woman searches for love and religious belonging.Ruth, a single mom of three, approaches her rabbi to officially convert to Judaism after living a Jewish life for 15 years. As she awaits an answer from a London beit din, she meets Samuel, an Orthodox Jewish man. Though she’s at first determined to steer clear of dating until her conversion is confirmed, she and Samuel enter into a relationship. Within weeks, Ruth introduces Samuel to her children and meets his mother. When her lie of omission is revealed, Samuel feels betrayed; he breaks up with Ruth. Though she spirals afterwards, she’s also guided toward self-acceptance, discovery, and new love.Family is the central concern of the novel. Ruth’s drive to convert is propelled by her need to create a stable foundation for her children. Her Orthodox community adheres to the tenet of matrilineal descent, though, and Ruth, who was adopted, doesn’t know her mother or her mother’s history. By contrast, Samuel’s roots are easy to trace; born to Spanish Jewish parents, he can tell their love story from the Spanish Civil War to the present.The push and pull between the clarity of Samuel’s roots and the obscurity of Ruth’s is a major conflict, both in the couple’s relationship and within the book. Ruth is surrounded by people who are sure of themselves and their places in their community; they know where they came from. By contrast, she uses her work, the ritual of the Jewish calendar, and her romance with Samuel to distract herself from her lack of knowledge about her family. Throughout, Ruth is compelling because of her flaws. She’s undisciplined when it comes to romance, but she loves her children and is fierce in protecting them. Her choices are not always correct, but she owns them when they cause trouble. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ora Murphy.

Breaking Babe Ruth: Baseball's Campaign Against Its Biggest Star , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 626min
Rather than as a Falstaffian figure of limited intellect, Edmund Wehrle reveals Babe Ruth as an ambitious, independent operator, one not afraid to challenge baseball’s draconian labor system. To the baseball establishment, Ruth’s immense popularity represented opportunity, but his rebelliousness and potential to overturn the status quo presented a threat. After a decades-long campaign waged by baseball to contain and discredit him, the Babe, frustrated and struggling with injuries and illness, grew more acquiescent, but the image of Ruth that baseball perpetuated still informs how many people remember Babe Ruth to this day. This new perspective, approaching Ruth more seriously and placing his life in fuller context, is long overdue.The book is published by University of Missouri Press.

A Bespoke Murder , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 564min
May 1915. With thousands of Britons fighting in the trenches, a severely depleted police force remains behind to keep the Home Front safe. Scotland Yard is already overstretched when the sinking of the Lusitania sparks an unprecedented wave of anti-German riots and arson attacks. Among the victims is the immigrant tailor Jacob Stein, found dead in his burnt-out shop. Initially Jacob’s killing appears to be the tragic excess of wartime hysteria – but when it transpires that Jacob had been stabbed, his safe ransacked, and his daughter Ruth raped, the possibility that these assaults were long-premeditated crimes becomes unavoidable. Detective Inspector Harvey Marmion and Sergeant Joe Keedy must take on this case of cover-ups and contradictions and track down Jacob’s killer and Ruth’s assailants. ungekürzt. Language: English.
